nlist

nlist(3ELF)						       ELF Library Functions						       nlist(3ELF)

NAME

       nlist - get entries from name list

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file ... -lelf [ library ... ]
       #include <nlist.h>

       int nlist(const char *filename, struct nlist *nl);

DESCRIPTION

       nlist()	examines  the name list in the executable file whose name is pointed to by filename, and selectively extracts a list of values and
       puts them in the array of nlist() structures pointed to by nl. The name list nl consists of an array  of  structures  containing  names	of
       variables,  types,  and	values.  The list is terminated with a null name, that is, a null string is in the name position of the structure.
       Each variable name is looked up in the name list of the file. If the name is found, the type, value, storage class, and section	number	of
       the name are inserted in the other fields. The type field may be set to 0 if the file was not compiled with the -g option to  cc(1B).

       nlist()	will  always  return  the information for an external symbol of a given name if the name exists in the file. If an external symbol
       does not exist, and there is more than one symbol with the specified name  in the file (such as static symbols defined in separate  files),
       the  values returned will be for the last occurrence of that name in the file. If the name is not found, all fields in the structure except
       n_name are set to 0.

       This function is useful for examining the system name list kept in the file /dev/ksyms. In this way programs can  obtain  system  addresses
       that are up to date.

RETURN VALUES

       All value entries are set to 0 if the file cannot be read or if it does not contain a valid name list.

       nlist() returns 0 on success, -1 on error.
